Description

In this course we will seek to understand - Biblically, theologically, and practically - the care ministry of the church of Jesus Christ. We will explore what it means to serve men and women, girls and boys, young and old, going through the various transitions of life into which pastors are regularly invited: birth of children, marriage, addiction-freedom, depression, grieving the loss of loved ones, etc. We will also look at how the church and the Body of Christ is to serve as 'pastoral-care giver.'
